అతడు మహానరకాలలో పడినవారినీ కలుపుకొని తన సమస్త పితృులను తారింపజేస్తాడు. పితృదేవతలను తర్పణతో సంతృప్తిపరచి, శ్రద్ధతో ఈ నీటిని పానము చేసేవాడు…
Narrator of the Dharmāraṇya-māhātmya
Tirtha: Ravikuṇḍa
Type: kund
Scene: At the kuṇḍa’s edge, a pilgrim offers tarpana with cupped hands; behind him, faint ancestral figures rise from shadowy realms toward light, suggesting release from naraka through the water-offering and sipping rite.
Care for ancestors through śraddhā and tarpaṇa is a powerful dharmic duty, believed to uplift even severely suffering Pitṛs.
The verse continues the Ravikuṇḍa/tīrtha-water context, praising its potency for Pitṛ upliftment.
Pitṛ-tarpaṇa (satisfying the Pitṛ-deities) and then drinking the tīrtha water with faith.
